Eklat at the village festival: controversial singing shocked Kargow!

Kargow, Deutschland - A huge turmoil recently developed at the village festival in Kargow, located in the picturesque Mecklenburg Lake District. In the night of June 22, the celebrating audience was witness to an unsightly incident when some visitors sang the well -known song "L’Amour Toujours" by Gigi d’Agostino with the words "foreigners, Germany". This worrying development is not least an indication of the increasing distribution of xenophobic slogans, which have been taken up again and again since autumn 2023 at festivals and in discos. As the Nordkurier reports, the DJ of the evening immediately apologized for the incident. He explained that he hadn't heard the chants and emphasized that he had previously had no such incidents in the region. If he had recognized the words, he would have interrupted the song immediately and distanced himself from the xenophobic statements.

Nevertheless, the reaction of the organizers remains unclear. A spokeswoman for the festival organizers denies that the insulting texts can be heard in the video. Again and again there are similar occurrences in Germany. A comparable incident occurred in a bar on Sylt in May 2024, where guests accumulated the same song with xenophobic slogans during a celebration and even an employee indicated the Hitler salute. This video led to nationwide outrage and far -reaching media reporting, while the Flensburg public prosecutor's office was investigated for sedition, which, however, later, due to the lack of suspicion.

discrimination in Germany

The problem of discrimination and xenophobia runs through the entire Federal Republic. In 2024, over 11,400 consulting requests were recorded by the federal anti -discrimination agency, which has been the highest level since the facility in 2006. These figures show that discrimination occurs not only in the form of insulting statements, but also in structural inequalities and physical violence. A look at the causes shows that around 21.8 percent of Germans are considered to be the manifesto as manifest - a worrying increase compared to previous years. The most common discrimination characteristics are ethnic origin, racism and anti -Semitism that are anchored in society and everyday life and can be reflected in any form of insult.

Together we have to ask ourselves where these exclusion stirring from. The tendency goes towards polarization in society by questioning minority rights. It is therefore not surprising that over 360 police operations in Germany were already recorded in 2024 due to similar incidents. Such statistics throw a significant light on dealing with xenophobia in German cities and villages.

FAZIT

The events in Kargow, like the incidents on Sylt, are not isolated cases, but part of a worrying trend. The organizers' reactions are crucial for the prevention of such incidents in the future. In order to ensure inviting and respectful interaction with each other, it is important to act immediately and to set clear signs against any form of discrimination. The company must take a stand and clear position in order to counteract such a exclusion. This is the only way we can strengthen the coexistence in Germany and experience celebrating together in full joy, without hearing the exclusion of the exclusion in the background.
